Line and Stacked Column Chart - Need help to display lower value on top.

I'm trying to build a chart with line and stacked column chart. I'm creating a measure based on userid of employees and based on filters I derive the count I desire.

 

However When I try to plot it in to line and stacked column chart the Higher value shows up first and lower value below that. I want it the other way around for my needs.  Can this be done? Here are some screen shots attached.  I want the 238 on top and 834 below and similarly 146 on top and 565 below.  That total is based on just one measure and I'm driving off of that to produce my desired view. 

 

// Total ID = count(DataTab[ID]) //

With my research and test, I am afraid you cannot achieve your requirement. Power bi doesn't support sort by the value in a singe bar.

If you have multiple measures, then I think reordering them in the Values field might do the trick.

 

If you are using the Legend field, then you might need to create an index column (and then sort by that column) to sort how you'd like.

I do not have multiple measures and don't need to. This is the only measure I have and those numbers are based on filtering them on a certain criteria

 

// Total ID = count(DataTab[ID]) // 

 

// If you are using the Legend field, then you might need to create an index column (and then sort by that column) to sort how you'd like. //

 

How do I do this?
